Los Dos DO Campo de Borja (Aragón), Spain
Los Dos is made for MundoVino by a prestigious grower co-operative called Bodegas Aragonesas from high-altitude estate vineyards in Campo de Borja. The name is Spanish for “the two,” referring to the fact that each wine is a blend of two complementary varieties. The vineyards are located in the foothills of the Sistema Ibérico near the Ebro River, in the northern part of the province of Zaragoza. This is an optimal area for grape growing due to the quality of its climate, its soil and the protection afforded by the mountains.
Los Dos White The enticing floral aromas of Muscat (75 percent) meet the crisp, bright acidity of Chardonnay (25 percent) in this fresh and friendly wine from the Campo de Borja DO in Northeastern Spain. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and sees no oak aging, so it is bright, fresh, and great for warm-weather gatherings. On the palate, notes of summer melon, pineapple, grapefruit and hints of flowers and light spice shine in this beautifully structured and balanced white blend. Pair with summer salads, grilled chicken and seafood and soft cheeses. 2013: Best Buy, WE
Los Dos Rosé Grenache (85 percent) joins Cabernet Sauvignon (15 percent) in this crisp and lush Rosé from the Campo de Borja DO in northeastern Spain. Located between the Sierra de Moncayo mountain range and the Ebro River valley, this historic region has produced wine since the late twelfth century. Like its red and white companions, this rosé is fermented in stainless steel and sees no oak aging, preserving the vibrantly youthful characteristics of the fruit. A beautiful Los Dos Rosé is both elegant and lively on the palate with flavors of fresh raspberry, lychee fruit, and white flowers. Fresh with a silky mouthfeel and a long, lasting finish. 2015: Best Buy, WS
Los Dos Red This wine is 85 percent Grenache and 15 percent Syrah from estate vineyards on the southern slopes of the Sierra Iberica Mountains, where the Garnacha vines range from thirty-five to fifty years old. Los Dos is fermented in stainless steel and sees no oak aging, so the wine is bright, fresh, and great for warm weather (especially chilled down a few degrees!). Bright cherry red with violet hues, Los Dos has pleasantly intense and complex aromas of red fruit and balsam, is structured on the palate, and has a lingering finish. It is an ideal cocktail party wine but is also extremely versatile when paired with food. 2013: WE Top 100 Best Buys of 2014 | 2011: WS Best Value
